Structural Design from Reclaimed Material Sauvabelin – The Never-Ending Story

This thesis is developed as part of the final year project that must be completed to obtain the MCs degree in Civil Engineering at EPFL. It follows up the pre-study project carried out during the last semester of the course. The environmental crisis that o ...

Cross verified independent measurements of correlated bubble property distributions as part of the scale-up of a catalytic bubbling fluidized bed reactor

Philipp Fedor Riechmann

Methanation can be applied as part of a Power-to-Gas (PtG) concept to store renewable electricity. Using a catalytic bubbling fluidized bed (BFB) methanation reactor allows a flexible and economic operation. Properties of bubbles rising through the fluidiz ...

Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of a Small-scale, High-speed, and Oil-free Radial Anode Off-gas Recirculation Fan for Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Systems

Jan Van Herle, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Patrick Hubert Wagner

The Laboratory for Applied Mechanical Design (LAMD) designed, manufactured, and experimentally tested a novel recirculation fan for a 10 kWe solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). The fan uses oil-free bearings, more specifically herringbone-grooved journal and spi ...

Effects of spatial variation of cluster entry friction on hydraulic fracture propagation in multistage fracturing

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Dmitry Nikolskiy

In this contribution, we explore different aspects of the multi-stage fracturing process such as stress interaction between growing hydraulic fractures, perforation and near-wellbore tortuosity effects as well as the wellbore flow dynamics using a fit-for- ...

Modeling of Simultaneous Propagation of Multiple Blade‑Like Hydraulic Fractures from a Horizontal Well

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Dmitry Nikolskiy

We explore different aspects of the multi-stage fracturing process such as stress interaction between growing hydraulic fractures, perforation friction, as well as the wellbore flow dynamics using a specifically developed numerical solver. In particular, g ...

Fine DNA structure revealed by constant height frequency modulation AFM imaging

Giovanni Dietler, Dusan Vobornik, Andrea Cerreta

Few examples of sub nanometer resolution on biomolecules can be found in literature. In particular, AFM experiments on DNA mostly fail to show the double helical groove periodicity, and so far such a feat was only achieved in liquid. Here we describe a met ...

Electric field within lightning protection volume in presence of a descending leader

Electric field distributions within lightning protection volume of a single lightning rod are studied for the case of a vertical downward leader. The boundaries of volumes with the electrical strength exceeding its critical value for ionization in air are ...

FM-AFM constant height imaging and force curves: high resolution study of DNA-tip interactions

Giovanni Dietler, Dusan Vobornik, Livan Bladimir Alonso Sarduy, Andrea Cerreta

Interaction of the atomic force microscopy (AFM) tip with the sample can be invasive for soft samples. Frequency Modulation (FM) AFM is gentler because it allows scanning in the non-contact regime where only attractive forces exist between the tip and the ...

The autocorrelation function for island areas on self-affine surfaces

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Srinivasa Babu Ramisetti

The spatial distribution of regions that lie above contours of constant height through a self-affine surface is studied as a function of the Hurst exponent H. If the surface represents a landscape, these regions correspond to islands. When the surface repr ...

3D simulations of the experimental signal measured in near-field optical microscopy

Olivier Martin

We present three-dimensional simulations of the image formation process in near-field optical microscopy, Our calculations take into account the different components of a realistic experiment: an extended metal coated tip, a subwavelength sample and its su ...
